Dr. Kathleen DesMaisons spoke at her Radiant Recovery Ranch "If you try to break the capsule that holds the pain it won't work - but if you 'bathe' it, instead of 'breaking' it - it will work."
Bathing the capsule. It's so beautifully ironic that this literally happens physiologically through CST - we bath the joint capsules in nutritive and lubricative fluid. Muscle release relates to Kathleen's description of "bathing the capsule" rather than trying to "break" it.
All of the Universe vibrates, everything. This is the way energy works. Muscles too vibrate - they have a frequency. When we hold tension, part of the muscle still holds a fixed frequency.
We can try and combat that frequency by forcing it to release, but this only reinforces it as our muscles hunker down even more defensively. OR! We can 'bathe the capsule' by MATCHING the frequency through slow and smooth range of motion.
Matching the frequency requires that we revisit and match the initial tension, so at first, like you describe, you'll feel tension mounting in the area. But as you move through and beyond, you match the frequency, and the muscles discharge the unnecessary vibration. It's quite an amazing mechanism.
We heal our own energy levels in our muscles through dynamic range of motion movement, as Kathleen teaches us to do in our biochemistry through nutrition.
